Chapter 609 - The Release Date Is Not Set?
While slowly walking toward the center of the palace, Luther talked with assurance, “Do you know why I’m never worried about being assassinated?”
“Mr. Luther.” Another old man in a priest robe said respectfully, “This city has activated the highest-level anti-spatial magic array. Even the Nimble Spirit of Cat, the spell that mages use to increase their ability to leap, can’t be used in the city. I’m sure that no assassins can enter this palace.”
…
Meanwhile, Sala and Helen were watching the assassins in the trailer climbing and jumping between tall towers and city walls like nimble cats. “They look powerful, but are these moves… useful? After all, true masters can fly!”
…
In the grand hall of the godly palace, the luxuriously dressed Luther held a tall glass of red wine. “Tsk, tsk, tsk! Sir, your eyesight is too low. In this palace, there are many magic traps made by our highly skillful mages. Even mages can’t find them with spiritual detection.”
“I assure you that before those lowly people can see me, they will be…”
He made a gesture by opening his hands and said, “Bang! Do you understand, sir?”
…
At this moment, Sala and Helen saw this scene. The visions of the assassins turned pale grey. In the pale grey world, some figures and objects became bright and stood out!
“My goodness! What’s that?!”
…
Luther sipped his wine with enjoyment as if he had totally forgotten his previous displeasure.
“I heard that those damn lowly mice are promoting our defeat in the invasion.” He snickered and then turned chilly. “I think it’s time to teach them a lesson!”
At this moment, a few assassins sneaked into the grand palace with great efforts.
Suddenly, their expressions changed drastically. “No! Ambush!”
“One can only use godly spells and godly power in this palace. All other forms of energies are suppressed.” Luther revealed a chilly smile. “Catch them all! They can’t get away!”
…
Meanwhile, Sala and Helen watched the assassins in the trailer silently fall from high places and hit their targets with precision. Then, they vanished into the crowds without a trace.
“Nothing is true, everything is permitted.”
The screens dimmed, and only six words remained before them.
They were shocked.
From these scenes and video clips, they saw assassins who were totally different! At least totally different from the ones in their mind!
Are these people assassins?!
How are assassins like this?!
At this moment, their minds were filled with the assassins who wore white robes and flew freely like eagles.
Their kills… No, those shouldn’t be called kills since their smooth combat techniques looked as beautiful as a dance.
They traveled through in the shadows in the darkness and resisted the templars, who craved for the holy items, the Pieces of Eden, and tried to control people’s mind and freedom with these items. This felt very different compared to those assassins who slaughtered the innocent.
The girls almost couldn’t believe their eyes. Due to this short trailer, they had a totally different image of assassins in their minds.
It seemed like the trailer didn’t show them the assassins of this time but another group of people in another time and space.
Eager, Sala walked to the counter and asked, “Sir, where is the entrance of the mystical realm named Assassin’s Creed?”
“Ugh?” Mr. Fang glanced at the elf girl who had exquisite facial features and wore a set of pale green leather armor. “It’s not released yet.”
“When will it be released…” The cinematic trailer had piqued her interest, and she was eager to try, but the shop owner told her that it wasn’t yet available?
“Um…” Mr. Fang explained, “The release date is not decided. If I have information about it…”
He pointed at the small blackboard behind him. “I’ll write it on the board.”
“What?! It’s not released?!” Helen was also frustrated.
– Meanwhile, in the old shops –
Su Tianji was lounging on a couch. “I just finished the new episodes of Legend of the White Snake. I’m bored and want to play new games.”
As an idle and lazy player, she mainly watched TV Series and grew vegetables. In fact, there were more people like her in the shops.
Fairy Qing Yun was one of them. Different from the addicted and moronic players such as Gabriel who came to the shop to deplete his fatigue points and use the horns to shout in the world channel even in bandages, they didn’t care to focus all their attention on one game.
For some people, they could obtain cultivation strength and combat experience by playing anything they wanted in the shop; they didn’t think it was necessary to stick to one game.
“Master! Master!” Fenghua and Yuexin joined her on the couch. “Did you watch the trailer for Assassin’s Creed?”
“Of course!” Hearing of mentioning of the new game, Su Tianji brightened up.
She sat up and said solemnly, “According to my years of experience with games, I’m sure that we can learn that strange way of intuitively sensing things. With this skill, we’ll be much safer when we enter and adventure in relics.”
After all, few spiritual spells or arrays could provide them with a sixth sense.
“I wonder what treasure the Pieces of Eden are…” Fenghua said, “It can even control people’s mind; it’s scary!”
“As for that…” Su Tianji picked up her communication jade.
[Sir, when will you release this game?!
] She had been enthralled by the free leap of faith in the sky and the smooth assassination moves.
As an elder of great talents, she had never assassinated people before.
She was eager to try it.
Mr. Fang glanced at the progress of the task.
Damn it! The number of players in the new shop is still low, and there are still no assassins in the shop yet. The release date…
“It will be released this year!”
“Pu-!” She felt like killing someone.
